Paul married Wilma Irene Bradley December 26, 1957 while on leave in the Army. He worked 24 years at International Harvester, 7 years at Peter Baker and Sons, and 3 years at Walmart. Paul enjoyed square dancing, roller skating, auto mechanics, gardening, hunting and fishing. He loved playing cards, poker, pinochle, euchre and several board games. Paul always enjoyed a good joke, and he was a jokester himself! He would plant onion set seeds in every plant on the second floor wing where his wife worked, rigged a laundry basket full of golf balls at the top of the stairs at his nephews house to be discovered when the door would be opened, he would offer you a peanut, ask how good it was and then reply that it was better before he sucked off all the chocolate!!!

Paul is survived by his loving wife of 64 years Wilma, son; Jeff (Beth) and Clint (Keri) and the apple of his eye granddaughter Ariana. He was preceded in death by his parents, brother; Gary, sisters; Dorothy and Carlene.
